Abstract

A device for affixing stickers or markings to the glass surfaces of vehicles, comprising an electrostatic vinyl (2) onto which the legal marking (3) is adhered, instead of being positioned directly on the glass surface (1). (Machine-translation by Google Translate, not legally binding)

Description

[0001] DESCRIPTION

[0003] Device for placing stickers or markings on the glass surfaces of vehicles

[0005] OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

[0007] The present invention, as stated in the description of this specification, relates to a device for attaching or affixing legally required stickers (badges) to the glass surfaces of vehicles. It has been designed and implemented to offer advantages over directly applying the sticker to the glass surface.

[0009] The device is intended for the placement of the stickers or markings that vehicles are required to display depending on their type, use, and current regulations, provided that they are placed from inside the vehicle.

[0011] The following are some examples of these mandatory stickers or badges:

[0013] ● DGT Environmental Badge

[0015] ● Vehicle Technical Inspection (ITV)

[0017] ● Taxi or VTC sticker

[0019] The device consists of an electrostatic vinyl sticker, onto which the legal sticker will adhere, instead of being placed directly on the glass surface. The mandatory legal sticker will ultimately be attached using the adhesive properties of the electrostatic vinyl, without the need for glues in direct contact with the vehicle's surface.

[0021] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0023] The mandatory stickers or markings of the type mentioned above are usually placed directly on the glazed surface of the vehicle.

[0024] This practice has the following drawbacks.

[0026] ● Adhesive Removal. Removing adhesives applied directly to a surface requires some type of handling that is not trivial and may require specific tools such as a blade. Furthermore, once removed, some residue of the adhesive compound may remain, requiring specific cleaning with specialized products.

[0028] ● Difficulty in reusing adhesives. If it is necessary to use the adhesive on another surface (for example, after replacing the glass), the adhesive will no longer be useful as it will have lost its adhesive capacity.

[0030] ● Deterioration. Adhesives placed in direct contact with the glazed surface may suffer deterioration such as loss of color and/or cracking due to continuous exposure to sunlight and high temperatures.

[0032] ● Vehicle care. Those who are fond of detailing or excessive vehicle care may encounter difficulties when applying an adhesive product directly to the glass surface.

[0034] EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

[0036] The device of the invention consists of an electrostatic vinyl film, in any of its possible compositions: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), Polyester (PET), Polypropylene (PP), etc. Its dimensions are slightly larger than any of the existing legal badges, including a margin on each side of between 0.1 and 3 cm maximum. The shapes of the device can be square, rectangular, round or irregular depending on the shape of the legal badge to be placed.

[0038] Thus, the device adheres to the vehicle's glass surface by electrostatic charges, without adhesive material. And the corresponding legal sticker adheres to the device by its adhesive capacity, on the front side, which does not contain an electrostatic charge.

[0039] Once placed, the legal badge is affixed to the vehicle without the use of glue, is reusable, is more protected against wear from temperature and sunlight, and leaves no residue on the vehicle after its removal.

[0049] PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

[0051] Described below with reference to the attached Figure 1.

[0053] The device comprises an electrostatic vinyl film (2), made of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), Polyester (PET), Polypropylene (PP), etc.

[0055] The size is equal to or slightly larger than any of the existing legal badges (3) (DGT Environmental Badge, Vehicle Technical Inspection (ITV), Taxi or VTC Sticker, etc.). If its size is larger than the badge, it will include a margin on each side of between 0.1 and 3 cm maximum.

[0057] The shapes of the device are square, rectangular, round or irregular depending on the shape of the legal emblem to be placed.

[0059] It is noted that this preferred embodiment does not limit the scope of the invention, and it is possible to introduce variations in the materials and the shape of the device, without going outside the object protected by this utility model.

Claims (4)

1. CLAIMS 1.- Device for placing stickers or distinctive markings on the glass surfaces of vehicles, consisting of an electrostatic vinyl (2), on which the legal distinctive marking (3) will be adhered, instead of being positioned directly on the glass surface (1). 2.- Device for placing adhesives or distinctive markings on the glass surfaces of vehicles according to claim 1, wherein the vinyl will have any of the following possible compositions: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), Polyester (PET) or Polypropylene (PP). 3.- Device for placing stickers or distinctive markings on the glass surfaces of vehicles according to any of the previous claims, wherein the size of the vinyl is greater than that of the legal marking by a margin of between 0.1 and 3 cm. 4.-Device for placing stickers or distinctive markings on the glass surfaces of vehicles according to any of the previous claims, wherein the shape of the vinyl can be square, rectangular, round or irregular.
